ZL1 Corvette at Auction Next Month.
 

This should be interesting. I just saw that one of the 1969 ZL1 Corvettes will be sold by Sotheby's next month. They are estimating it will bring $3m. I think that is way low.

If it was the Yellow one or the White one I would agree with you. Being it's the Orange one I don't think it will make the $3M mark.

The consignor did his homework. Tank sticker and Bloomington Gold. Ownership history since new.

It will be interesting to see if the money is still as strong as it has been in the last couple years. Based on recent auctions, I'd say it isn't. But, you also have to factor that cream always rises to the top.

I thought they’re were only two ZL1 Vettes made. What’s the story on this one?

The Maher car. It has two sets of documents, one of them might be real. The other set of papers has issues. Read this thread:

Didn't somebody post a document from the engine plant that said there were two ZL-1 motors made for Corvettes?

----No, I believe there were five although they didn't all get used!....Bill S

From the late Fran Preve, engineer at the Tonawanda Engine Plant.
